RENOVATIONS #2

ALL OF THE CONSTRUCTION AND HEAVY WORK HAS BEEN COMPLETED - THE REPLACEMENT OF THE VITROLITE BLACK GLASS FACADE, NEW PLUMBING, NEW WIRING AND PAINTING.

MOST OF THE HANDMADE COUNTER, SHELVING AND FURNITURE IS ALSO IN PLACE, THIS WILL BE HAND PAINTED BY A DEAR FRIEND AND FINISHED ON SITE WHEN THE DIRTY WORK IS OVER AND THE DUST HAS SETTLED.

IT FEELS SO THRILLING TO SEE THE PROGRESS THAT IS BEING MADE AND TO SEE THIS LITTLE SPACE COMING ALIVE AGAIN.

WE ARE AT A STAGE OF THE LAST SNAGGY JOBS NEEDING TO BE COMPLETED, WHICH SEEM TO BE TAKING THE LONGEST TIME. I KEEP TELLING MYSELF TO BE PATIENT THOUGH, IT IS THESE SMALL DETAILS THAT CAN OFTEN GET RUSHED AT THE END OF A JOB AND THEN COMPROMISE THE OVERALL LOOK AND FEEL OF THE SPACE AND I'M DETERMINED NOT TO LET THAT HAPPEN.

SO I WILL BE PATIENT AND MAKE SURE THAT EVERYTHING IS COMPLETED AS IT SHOULD BE. IN THE MEANTIME, THE SMALL DREAM TEAM THAT I HAVE GATHERED AROUND ME ARE WORKING HARD BEHIND THE SCENES ON SOME REALLY EXCITING PROJECTS: THE MENU, NEW PRODUCTS, NEW DESIGNS... AND THE MOST EXCITING OF ALL FOR ME...

TRANSPORTING AND ARRANGING JARS, BOTTLES, HERBS AND CONCOCTIONS ON TO THE FRESHLY OILED SHELVES, IN ANTICIPATION OF OPENING THE WELCOME DOOR TO OUR FIRST GUEST!
